When we got together to play for the first time, in early October of 2008, it’s hard to describe exactly what happened. Between us, we have countless years of playing and performing experience! But it wasn’t just the experience. It was that we both seemed tuned-in to each other and both play extensively “by ear”. It was an instant “musical marriage” of our instruments, the flute and guitar, which seemed to play themselves, weaving in and out of melodies, playing the classics and gliding effortlessly through standards.

And so we’ve decided to perform as a duo. Because we know that after you’ve heard us once, you’ll want to hear us again and again, we’ve named our duo, Encore. We're based in the sunny Region of Niagara, Ontario, Canada.
